Removable batteries aren't going to come back, because of the way batteries are tariffed. Phone manufacturers went non-removable because a non-removable battery is considered an essential component of the phone therefore are not tariffed separately while removable batteries are. So the profit margin on a phone with a non-removable battery is just slightly better and more stable than it's non-removable counterpart.

Not to mention that Bluetooth audio quality is a mine field of it's own. Although many devices support higher definition standards like AAC, AptX, or AptX HD most manufacturers have their own interpretation of these so you can't use (in most cases) an iphone AAC or AptX with a non-Apple licensed device, and many android phone makers have similarly unique interpretations of the so-called "standards", so what most often happens is that the Bluetooth connection defaults back to the old SBC standard from BT1.1 with it's frankly abysmal audio quality (similar to 128kbs MP3 so some people will still call that great though).

Because you're living in the past, bt is way more convenient and just better and no it does not suck alot of the power out of your phone, it sucks less because the phone has no longer to power up the headphone speakers, the separate battery does that and bt doesn't take as much power so in terms of your phone battery you're actually on better. There is nothing as annoying as the headphone wires that get in the way, get stuck in the stuff even if you put it under the shirt and they break every 3 to 6 months. Bt module for your bigger speakers is like $10... any speakers can be easily bt enabled by just plugging them in the bt module and then connecting with the phone. If you're a bit of diy guy you can make that even more seamless without buying enabled bt speakers. Open up the speakers or amp and install that little bt circuitry inside the device itself as it will probably fit (the board is small and amps have plenty of space, speaker cabinets even more) connect it to the power (might need to be step down with a voltage regulator) and of course hook it into the audio in wires (the backside of the 3.5mm jack).

Because the part of the wire which comes out the shirt and then into the pocket where it plugs into a pda is fully exposed. If you make it tight it's uncomfortable, if you don't then then the exposed wire just makes a nice little arc ready to catch into shit that you pass. Also the whole process of setting it all up was frustrating and took some time, to do, because you have to fish the cable through, and clip it so it doesn't pull down and if you later decide you want to use the pda while listening to the music, you have to unplug it pull the wire out and plug it in... such pain in the ass. It wan't even worth the trouble, I have opted to just use the speaker or not listen to the music at all so many times, because it was just too much effort.

Valve saw this as a way to innovate, and due to other underlying reasons, to create stronger DRM, and provide updates faster, Steam, the first successful digital distribution platform was released, and the rest is history. UPlay, Origin, battle.net, etc. And less people started to use CD. Granted some people still use them, to transfer legacy software, but it's mostly gone for normal consumers. What I'm trying to say is that Apple has the same idea Valve did. They saw the future and were willing to take risks, as they're known for. Sure some people complained, but normal consumers didn't care and some were happy that the headphone jack was being removed for something better. And it paid off. Sales research after Q1 2017 placed the iP7 as the best-selling smartphone in the world. TL:DR - Headphone jack are soon to meet the fate of CDs, long gone because of wireless advancements in technology, for better or for worse.

You might complain about USB C headphones however, if you have a gamers headset with "true" 7.1 surround USB C is a way to go for true audiophiles. Especially if you are using a Android app called Neutron Music Player that specializes in DAC controllers. If you like downmixed stereo quality go for those 3.5 jack for only hearing 2/3 of the music you would be missing. The only other piece of hardware you would need is a OTG cable.

i honestly hate this dongle life. i refuse it, fight it...we gained nothing by switching. i have 1 device (convertible) that uses usb-c, and i use an external monitor for it. i gained nothing, i lost a usb slot. -.- its just BS. it's a marketing gag that ppl followed...is one for the history books. -> keep on ranting Gordon...we feel you ;)

"some phone dont have dacs and require a external dongle with a dac and some have built in but its usb c and require a no dac adapter" if they built it in why do they not include a headphone jack? obviously this is not a space issue they just want people to fucking buy more wireless headphones when they clearly suck in terms of sound quality and most importantly latency, i have a pair of true wireless headphones and the delay is almost 1 second its ridiculous, and i am stuck with a stupid dongle wired thing instead of having the jack built in the damn phone. maybe 3.5 is not as durable as usb c but i don't know but i use it daily, so far i don't have any 3.5 jack break on me. So i don't see the reason to remove 3.5 except for promoting sales of dodgy wireless headphones that sucks

I'm surprised you didn't mention what happens at 2:07! That's one of the worst implementations I've ever seen.

I just got one on ebay and it dont work on my Galaxy S-21 is there a phone setting that I need to change? I guess they got rid of the headphone port for better waterproof phones.

They should remove the U from USB, because it clearly isn't very universal anymore.

Deejay Core Left apple? what did you do????????left them muhawhahahaha? Nokia 3310 now? to do what?

The only way to fix any problem is to return what you bought and ask for a total refund, then write to the president of the company and complain. Remember, you are the boss, companies need you.. you don’t need them.

I have a pixel 7 so....I have to buy a digital type adapter right? or it just will work with de google one?

Just how manufacturers followed Apple and sealed batteries, now they doing this. So now you have to buy an expensive Bluetooth headphone to have the same audio quality as with a $15 headphone. And have another device with battery you have to remember to charge it all the time and get annoyed when connection breaks or audio lags. And headphone battery will start to lose capacity after 1-2 years. Or if you don't want Bluetooth you need to mess with stupid dongles, fragile USB port instead of much more robust 3.5 jack. And remember to take them with you. Phones are becoming bigger and bigger and they slowly removing everything with the excuse of space saving and weather resistance. What's next? Remove USB port also and allow charging only with wireless?

The things you are talking about apply to the Bluetooth earphones from a couple of years ago. Now with Bluetooth 4.2 and 5 things like that never happens. Also you have a range of at least 10 m away from your device which isn't possible while using wired ones. I have an anker soundbuds life and the battery is 24hrs of music playback. I charge it only once every 2 weeks and it only needs like 2 hrs of charge to last you this long. Technology is getting better and better but you're not realizing it since you just are afraid of change.

How about charging and listening to audio? My Moto Z2 Force used to do that. But after upgrading Android, it's broken. Doesn't work like it used to.

Gotta say, I never saw the upside to getting rid of the audiojack. Just.... why? It's used all the time - doesn't take up a lot of space, is cheap and is compatible with anything. Now, for certain devices you have to carry an extra dongle around everythere you go? Wow.... progress? Did anyone actually ask for this or do companies just follow Apple trends even when they are hugely unpopular? I can't really forsee myself ever buying a phone or tablet without a minijack. Not unless the port goes completwly extinct for some reason. Can anyone actually provide a solid practical reason for this trend? Id be genuinely interrested to know.

All the phones look gigantic so a tiny 3.5mm port shouldn't be an issue. How is one supposed to carry them around anymore. You don't want to look like the guy from spinal tap going through airport inspection.

This dongle crap is ridiculous man, I have hope though! If we ban together as a collective we can change the tide. WE'RE the consumer and WE'RE buying their products so they need to impress US. The only reason why they get away with it is because people are continuously upgrading their phones. I admit I fell for the brainwashing thinking I wouldn't miss the headphone jack with the Pixel 2 but I do! Some people like to charge their phones and listen to music as well...I won't be upgrading to any Google device until they bring it back, if they don't I'll just go to a competitor that DOES.

We need the headphone jack... The DACs in phones were just fine, and I'm pretty sure those DACs are better than the ones you'll get in some cheap digital USB-C audio adapter. I don't plan on getting any phone without a heaphone jack. I've got a Moto G4 Plus at the moment, and whenever I upgrade, I plan on getting whatever OnePlus is out at the moment. Hopefully OnePlus keeps the headphone jack.

Agreed to an extent, Phone audio was hideous and was an absolute trash solution next to actually having a DAP with a high quality AMP/DAC, I mean we pay around a grand for smartphones but when I show people an Astell&Kerns they loose their mind over the prices. Apple Products are simply overpriced and iTunes was always the laughing stock of quality music, so much so even the engineer that designed it came out and said how embarrassed he was and how it set back the industry a decade at minimum compared to other players at the time on the market. The only reason people use phones as a music player is out of conv. not because of quality also the SNR and background noise/static is disgraceful on phones. I have only ever seen and heard a few phones that had decent audio, Razer phone, Moto X pure are 2 of them, and most enthusiasts use an AMP/DAC with a phone just to try and make it better with a set of Grado/Sennheiser/or other high end audio cans. The only reason Beats became famous was because the more expensive versions had a DAC/AMP built into the headphones in order to make the Itune audio sound more fuller, the drawback was they were profiled for Bass heavy modern music which drowns out mids excessively.

The thing is: Having an external USB DAC over USB-C will work on all phones. They're standard USB Audio Devices which is why they work on laptops too. Putting a jack on the phone doesn't mean you can't use an external DAC. The P20 Pro does it just fine, as does the Sony (they do the auto switch for you.)

Find a phone that have both 3.5mm jack & usb audio, chop the wire of a headphone, connect it to a digital multimeter that can log data, now play White Noise, Pink noise, logarithmic Sine & Arithmetic Sine
